deaddemmama 474 Posted August 9, 2013 I went to the beach today in a bathing suit and had a wonderful time. I focused on me and didn't worry about my size. Oh and my bathing suit is falling off of me. I ordered one from landsend in a size 14 and hope it gets here soon! I'm in a 14 bottom, but a 20 top.....must get rid of boobs!

pookybear 284 Posted August 10, 2013 Went to the Water park today and I didn't feel like the biggest person there! I even went down 2 slides, though I don't think I'll be doing THAT again LOL...I'll stick with the wave pool and the lazy river. 3 babs963, slowtogo and elli'smommy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terry1118 1,274 Posted August 10, 2013 Yesterday was dress down day at work. The jeans I've been wearing were getting too baggy so I tried on everything in my jeans drawer. Most of them were two baggy! Only two fit - and I hadn't been able to fit in those for three years! :-) 3 Sara Beth, elli'smommy and jaye1464 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

terry1118 1,274 Posted August 11, 2013 I've been bringing down smaller and smaller clothes from my attic. I've already gotten rid of bunches of jeans and slacks, some without even getting a chance to wear them. I have clothes down to sz14 - if I get lower than that I'm going to have to make my husband do a few side jobs so I can go shopping! :-) The future is looking bright for the first time in years... 4 Dorian, wonderwoman75, kraney and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
